autumn the sopranos

autumn is a season for both depression & hope, something i've been saying to a few people and it sure is true,

watched the last two episodes of the sopranos today, one when i woke up, the other just now, this last one had glad tidings by van morrison playing through it, just how great is that?

i am really going to miss the sopranos, such great telly...

and when my brother finally gets it going i will have the last 4 episodes of six feet under to feast upon, then maybe i'll start watching this 3rd series of 24, but it's no real comfort, six feet under & the sopranos are leagues ahead...

now what i really want is that dvd of seinfeld that's just come out in this country, how deliriously happy would that make me?

taught my notation class tonight, taught it well i think, played through bach's prelude in c major while my class followed the score and shouted out the dynamics ("pianissimo"), struggling with skryabin as ever at the moment, makes me feel a certain nervous giddy feeling, so close to being able to play it... i may not be able to play a piano at all tomorrow...

i finished the bunuel book on the tube home, had to wait 30 minutes for my first train, somehow was in a very dark patch for awhile, like i say, this season suits both ups and downs, going to see josiah & grace tomorrow, up early to catch a bus... she'd love to hear that van morrison tune, maybe i'll put it onto a minidisk so we can listen to it, went round to hers to get some essentials she'd overlooked in her very speedy departure...

and my sister safely in her new place too, can't wait to go see it, maybe doing an orange wednesday thing next week,

oh the sopranos, what am i going to do without you?
